    I drive a 62 mph truck, and I usually get to my appointment times with several hours to spare. But that's the glory of next day deliveries

    I had 1 driver few years ago cry about trucks not being FAST ENOUGH , told him go buy your own drive as fast as you want :) and HE DID.

    Today he is at home with no CDL ( under suspension for too many speeding tickets ) or insurance as no company will touch him, with a LARGE CAR with a FOR SALE sign in the window sitting in his drive way.
